Award-winning wine writer Max Allen takes you on a journey through the Australian wine landscape, evoking the flavours, telling the stories, showing you the places, and exposing the rich culture of this great wine-producing country.
Written in Max's irreverent, down to earth and highly personal style, Max looks in detail at the grape varieties grown and wine styles made in Australia - and what to eat with them. He explores Australia's incredibly diverse wine regions one by one, explaining why the wines from each place taste the way they do. And finally, Max takes a light-hearted look at those wine words peculiar to Australia.
Like Max's first book, 'Red And White', there are no vintage charts, no star ratings, no graphs, no diagrams in here. And this book isn't trying to be an encyclopedia, or an atlas, or a buying guide. Instead, this is a pleasure guide to Australian wine. And once again, Max's words are accompanied by Adrian Lander's stunning photography, including over 50 portraits of Australia's best winemakers, taken exclusively for this book.
